The University of York was created by Royal Charter and is a public higher education institution and exempt charity in England.
The University wanted to modernise its approach to developing software to help staff and students and recognised Scrum could help.
They engaged TheScrumMaster.co.uk to deliver a range of private Scrum training for I.S. staff to support this initiative. Our prior experience working with the University of London gave them confidence that we were the best choice.

I have delivered and sat through a lot of training in my time but I think Simon’s delivery of scrum foundations training was an exemplar of good training. He was incredibly knowledgable while being approachable provided a huge amount of detail while keeping the two days fun and engaging throughout. Not only was this an enjoyable experience but it has also made a profound impact on my practice and all those who I attended with. The session was well designed, activities appropriate and useful and the delivery first class. I would highly recommend Simon as a trainer and I know we are looking to get him back soon. Cheers.

Simon delivered a 2 day Scrum Master training course to myself and colleagues. The course was well structured, provided a good balance of learning/theory & practical exercises. Following completion of the course I was able to pass the PSM Level 1 exam and feel well equipped to participate in SCRUM projects in my organisation. Thanks.

Simon provided great service from beginning to end. On the phone and via email he helped ensure we selected the most appropriate course for our needs, and also that we optimised the class size to get the most benefit. Simon then delivered the PSF course with confidence and good humour in such a way as to be engaging and thought-provoking for all participants. It was great fun too! Many thanks Simon.
